Cellometer Counting Chambers

Cellometer Counting Chambers are compatible with all Cellometer Systems. Each all-plastic, disposable slide
contains two sample counting chambers with precisely controlled height. The fixed 20µl sample size allows for
simple, automated calculation of cell concentration following imaging and counting. After loading of sample,
the slide is inserted into a Cellometer System. Cells are imaged directly from the center of the counting
chamber. Image-based counting with disposable counting chambers offers several key advantages:

No potential clogging

Ideal for fragile samples, such as hepatocytes

No washing

No potential cross-contamination

Loading a Chamber

Each chamber has two ports. 20µl of cell sample is loaded into one port. The second port allows air to escape for easy loading.

PD100 Slides (2 counting chambers per slide)

The PD100 slides are standard chamber thickness, accommodating cells from 2 to 80µm in diameter.
PD slides are individually QC-checked and packed in microscope slide boxes. Each slide is ready-to-use.

PD300 Slides (2 counting chambers per slide)

The PD300 slides are larger slides designed for cells >80µm in diameter, such as adipocytes.
The Auto2000, Vision, and Vision CBA instruments are compatible with the PD300 slides.

SD100 Slides (2 counting chambers per slide)

SD100 slides are standard slide thickness, for cells ranging from 2 to 80µm in diameter. Each slide has
protective film on both sides that must be removed before use. The SD100 slides are a cost-effective
alternative to the ready-to-use PD100 slides.
